Re: From what year on with Heuer buckle?? And perf. straps?

Good question Ron, I've often wondered this too.
Perhaps some of the Haslinger/Bonhams attendees can verify what was on the early NOS pieces.

: Hi Experts,

: Enjoying a nice Merlot red wine, and watching athletics on BBC, I

: it is correct to fit them with a buckle with Heuer logo. Do not
: misunderstand me, I love them, and have them on most of my

: I checked all the catalogues on the site, but never see the strap

: how far the popular perforated version is authentic on them.

: Anybody out there who has an early Autavia or Carrera of which it
: is sure that it is 100% authentic??? Ordoesn't, but just
: knows>

: Have a nice weekend!
